Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence Following Cardioversion: the Role of Clinical Factors and Alpha Defensin Levels

Summary

Atrial fibrillation and inflammation are strongly correlated. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether inflammation markers (alpha Defensin) predict maintenance of sinus rhythm following cardioversion. A secondary aim is to evaluate the role of Colchicine, an anti-inflammatory medication, in reducing the recurrence rate of atrial fibrillation.
